I'd have to say that football is a much simpler game, with less rules and much less equipment required, and probaly easier to understand. Have a look.mattrsch wrote:
Well put, I can recognize that soccer is a good sport, but I get less enjoyment from watching it than I get from American Football because I understand the rules much better. Understanding the sport generally leads to greater appreciation because you can then appreciate all of the subtle nuances of the game. It also helps that I am surrounded with people who also love AM football.

If football was played without pads it'd be like signing a death certificate. Sorry but you Europeans that have never touched a football don't have a clue what you're talking about. We wear pads so we can play at the intensity we play at. It still hurts and people still get seriously injured. People play it because they love a full contact sport where they can beat each other up, but also wear pads so they can walk the next day.Towelly wrote:

It's because we aren't retarded with fat heads. We don't like paying guys to bleed and kill each other. I like watching a game not some idiots fighting. If I wanted that I would watch wrestling.B1GBUD wrote:

Anyone see John Terry's head nearly come off yesterday? Knocked out cold, swallowed his tongue, left the pitch on a stretcher aided by an oxygen mask, went to hospital in a "Ambiwlans" (no my spelling isn't as bad as normal, I have infact spelt this correctly, I'm being Bi-Lingual, nerrr) took 5 mins or so to come around (can't spell concesness correctly) and then left hospital in 2 hours.
He hobbled out of a midweek game and wasn't expected to be in Chelsea's squad let alone start the game. You could see he was having problems running.
This is just to add weight to the argument that football isn't a woofta's game. I dont care which sport is harder.
